I didn't know sticky tape usage is a blessable act. TIL!

It's a microcake! You won't feel it going in!

I read somewhere that the cake is a lie.

Haven’t heard of Fathers Ted, and I assumed by the title that this was an article about passphrases

Talk about Baader–Meinhof phenomenon. Just a week ago I became aware of Father Ted and watched only the show with the tape dispenser because it was recommended to me by Youtube. This article is year old, and shows up now in my feed.

Yesterday I found out about the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon and now I see it mentioned! Must be the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon phenomenon.

Now that he's got the manufacturing costs down this is edging toward being the surprise breakthrough device of the 2020s. Just needs marketing, I hear that Jonathan Ive fellow is in need of something meaningful to do these days.

I don't know if this is an HN thing (as in, the software disallows it), but that title needs some punctuation. My first thought was "Who's Ted Kilnettle and what's Shrine Tape"?
